Your own pool in Pippa’s tropical lovenest

-

The Brando Hotel, Tetiaroa

IT’S little wonder this hotel was the honeymoon destinatio­n of choice for Pippa Middleton after her wedding to hedge fund manager James Matthews last May.

Described as the perfect castaway island, guests arrive by private plane from Tahiti 30 miles way.

Every villa is set on the white, sandy beaches, kept pristine by a beach sweeper, and has its own infinity pool looking on to the ocean.

There’s also a full-time ‘coconut safety engineer’ responsibl­e for picking ripe coconuts before they are able to fall and injure a passing guest. The hotel was the brainchild of Hollywood actor Marlon Brando, who fell in love with the region when he filmed Mutiny On The Bounty in the Sixties. On the Hollywood star’s instructio­n, it’s eco-friendly too.

Electricit­y comes from a coconut oil power station and the air-con uses sea water.
